STORY DESCRIPTION
Georgia and Wyatt couldn’t be more opposite.
Wyatt teaches wilderness survival training. A gruff, simple, outdoorsy type, more at home in the woods than in polite society, he’s used to barking orders. In a survival situation, what he says goes, or somebody could get hurt.
Georgia does what she wants, when she wants and she isn’t a long-term relationship type of girl. Men come—men go. Her life is endless parties, fundraisers, shopping sprees and spa days at the salon.
When Georgia signs up for one of Wyatt’s survival weeks, it’s blatantly obvious she is far outside her comfort zone. Everything that can go wrong, does. Why is she so undeniably drawn to the rough Neanderthal caveman when nothing about them fits?
Wyatt is instantly attracted to Georgia, and he knows why. He’s found his mate. But, has fate made a terrible mistake? How will he survive Georgia as a mate when he’s not sure he’ll survive the week?
CHAPTER 1: Georgia
I tapped the screen of my phone and groaned.“One bar. I have one measly, stinking bar of service. Is this just a dead zone or something? It gets better once you get to town, surely?”
The cowboy next to me, driving, grinned. “No, ma’am. Not really.”
I held the phone up, like being lifted higher than the car’s open top would suddenly make a difference. “Shit. I’m trying to send an email and nothing’s happening.”
He looked over at me, pushing his cowboy hat up on his head while holding my gaze. The road stretched on, straight as an arrow, in front of us and he held the car steady. “We could always find something better to do.”
If I hadn’t been dating bad boys since I was old enough to shave my legs, I suppose I would’ve appreciated the dangerous move. As it was, the cockiness of it only served to irk me slightly. Somehow, the possibility of ending up splattered on the front of a big rig, like the few that had passed us, just didn’t appeal to me now that I was in my late twenties. Not that it had in my early twenties, either.
“Keep your eyes on the road and I’ll consider finding something for you to do.” Lie. Nothing was going to happen with the cocky cowboy. He’d already blown his shot. I couldn’t even pinpoint when exactly it had happened, but one moment I’d been considering him, the next I’d already written him off. That’s just the way it worked for me.
My email finally went through a half-second before a message from my latest ex popped up. I didn’t bother to read it before pressing delete, then quickly dialing my best friend. Allie sure knew how to hide when she decided to run away. The town I was headed to was barely a hole in the wall. It sure didn’t matter enough to get its own spot on a map, apparently. Hence the cowboy driver in a convertible instead of a real taxi service. It was the best arrangement I could find to take me all the way down to Burden, Texas.
Allie answered on the fourth ring, out of breath. “Knock it off, I want to get this.”
I rolled my eyes as a low growl sounded from her end of the call and she burst into giggles. I knew what was happening. She’d been attached to her new man’s hip since they’d hooked up, and this wasn’t the first call I’d made ‘interrupting’ them.
“Allie, I’m about an hour away. You think you two can be done by then?” I couldn’t even pretend to be annoyed at her for answering in the middle of playtime with her big bear-man. She was in love and I was happy for her. She deserved it.
“She’ll be done and working the bar by then. Can’t wait to meet you, Georgia. Bye, now.” Click.
I laughed and slipped my phone back in my purse, content to ride the rest of the way without it. I’d hastily wrapped a silk scarf around my hair to keep it from beating me to death on the trip, but it wasn’t doing much. Long strands were whipping around, lashing my face and neck. I glanced over at the cowboy and noticed that his hair just seemed to blow easily around his
forehead. Sexy.
Maybe I’d written him off too soon, I thought as I mentally put him back on the court. Maybe he was still in the game.
I was tired both from the flight I’d taken and the going away party I’d thrown the night before, but I refused to give in to the urge to sleep. I’d be seeing Allie very soon for the first time in what felt like forever. I didn’t want to meet her new man with sleep marks on my face. If there was one thing my very southern, very belle-ish mom had taught me, it was that first impressions mattered.
“How long are you going to be in town? Maybe you can look me up on your way back through?” He side-glanced over at me through hooded lids, his lip caught between his teeth and I had the distinct impression that he’d practiced that look in the mirror several times before perfecting it.
“I’m not sure, actually. Could be a few weeks or a few days. It depends how Burden, Texas agrees with me.”
“I can’t imagine anything, or anyone, not agreeing with you, sweetheart.”
I stared at him for longer than it was comfortable for him evidently, because he turned back to the road, eyes straight ahead and steady for once. I couldn’t help picking him apart. It was just a thing I did. It was the reason no man lasted longer than a few weeks with me. I stared too much, had silent debates about them in my head, and just generally analyzed them to pieces until they, or I, ended it. Usually me. I seemed to always be looking for something that wasn’t there. Hell, I didn’t even know what it was that I was looking for.
“Lots of people disagree with me, sweetheart.” I threw the name back at him. “How much longer ‘till Burden?”
He glanced back over at me in time to catch the wink I sent his way. I didn’t want to seem like too much of a bitch. He could still pull the car over and kick me out, even if I was paying him a hefty sum to drive me.
“Still a good ways off. Why don’t you lean on back and get comfortable? I’ll get you there safe and sound.”
I let out a long, audible sigh. Without my phone, I was as bored as a puppy in a fenced yard without toys. “Okay. Just be sure you wake me in time to freshen up before we get to town. Maybe we can stop at a gas station or something before we get in?”
He laughed like I’d made a funny joke. “You must be thinking of someplace else. There’s nothing outside of Burden but more of what you’re seeing right here.”
I looked around. “There’s nothing between us and the town except—land?”
“Not a thing. The first place we’ll come up on is a bar called The Cave. I guess you can freshen up in there, if you want.”
I bit off a groan and tipped my head back to look up at the sky. Looking at the vast, bright blueness of it, I could almost forget that Allie had clearly found a town that was meant to be hidden away. It was tucked away with nothing around it and hardly any way to get there like a private oasis residents weren’t keen on sharing.
